My crochet experiment

I've found that recently I've started doing things that remind me of my grandmother. A few months ago, I started making homemade tortillas. (Yes Mom, I'm now a real Mexican!) This past weekend, I bought some yarn and a crochet needle, and ... I'm knitting a scarf! So far, I'm seven rows in, and my hand is all cramping up. I've only been working on it for a couple of days. Below's a picture, but the yarn color looks bad. I need to figure out how to take a better close-up picture. It's supposed to be a very nice combination of red, orange, and yellow.


And yes, Roy has already cracked jokes about me getting old. My crochet project isn't helping. :P
